Description: You gain a brief but incomplete understanding of one book's contents, equivalent to having skimmed its pages for 1 hour. This insight is not sufficient to translate unknown languages, decipher codes, or memorize text, but it does allow the caster to learn what topics the book discusses. In addition, you instantly benefit from any bonuses or effects the book would normally grant to anyone who reads it for 1 hour.

Level 0: You read one page worth of material instead.
